Happy Birthday to Gonzo (Hector Gonzalez). He was absent from our hardbody races on Sunday and there was a noticeable reduction in noise (ha, ha).

Tim's comment is right on, Gonzo is a premiere hardbody racer and the best hardbody scratchbuilder at BPR. His ability to bend piano wire and come up with some of the most innovative design features is amazing.

Hello my name is Barney and I was... I am addicted to glue, magnets, and wings... I have been clean and sober years now... NOW I'm hooked on 1/32 club track racing! Dang!

"Even if you're on the Right Track, you'll get run over if you just sit there!"

If you remember screw-on braid, motors that look like padlocks, that dang fuse wire in Cox controllers, "hand" painted bodies, the very first can motors from Mabuchi, and the smell of wintergreen then you are OLD!... like me!
